Rainy branches


Today was the first day in months I can officially say I do not have to be at work, the hospital, or school. I didn't wake up till 11:45am, and it was the best thing ever! I'm just working around the house, and enjoying this cup of coffee on a rainy day. Half the day is gone already, but that's okay, I'll make the most of what's left. 
I have been reading and saying the 23rd Psalm in my head a lot lately. One reason I love it so much is because it was the first verse I ever memorized as a little girl. My mom used to help me memorize it every morning before school, and I still think about it. 
The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.
 He maketh me to lie down in green pastures,
he leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul,
 he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, 
I will fear no evil,
for thou art with me.
 Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
 Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies, 
thou anointest my head with oil,
 my cup runneth over.
 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
 and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.
